Can't believe you make this one too... I made a Darkness on 10 Feb (when the track has not been fixed) but don't know how to add hitsounds
Awesome map

Hi Niva (:3 」 _) =3

From #modreqs

[Easy]

00:27:629 (1) Slider is unbalanced. change -> http://puu.sh/2aC5j A beautiful shape that is recommended. Oh it's not intentional, fixed

00:35:159 (1) add finish? Other diffs doesn't use finish o.o

00:42:690 (1) This is slider shape change this? -> http://puu.sh/2aC7M Umm, don't really like that shape personally ._.

01:14:071 (1,2,3,4,1) This is pattern shape - > http://puu.sh/2aCfz <- change? Made it more balanced (hopefully~)

01:45:451 (2) add finish? Done

[Hard]

AR - 1? With the jumps AR8 is better I believe xD

00:16:175 (4) remove note and 5 slider 00:16:175 and 00:16:645 add note Oh, it's following vocals

01:45:451 add finish? Done


[Insane]

00:27:629 (1,2,3,4,5) This is patter shape, can be further improved.
-> http://puu.sh/2aCZd o.o? My current pentagon is good already I think >_<

01:45:451 (3) add finish? Done


Nice map ! Star !

AR -1 ?

01:09:677 (5) slider end add clap <-- here alredy clap~

00:36:100 (2) remove slider and add note ? 00:37:669 (1,2,3,4,5) This is the same as <--- No, slider sounds better here

00:42:690 (1,2,3,4,5) The same as the previous pattern? -> 00:40:179 (1,2,3,4,5) <--- hm don't see reason change it

00:46:456 (3,4) remove note and add 1/2 slider? <--- No, I prefer notes here

00:50:849 (2,3) remove note and add 1/2 slider? <--- ^

01:36:037 (2) 1 grid down <--- fixed

1. Is there a need for the BG's size to be over half a megabyte, actually...? It only bloats the package's size unnecessarily. Reduce to ~200 KB?

1. 00:37:669 - Switch back the Addition to Auto and add finish here? It actually fits better with the sound here, IMO.
2. 00:42:690 - ^
3. 00:57:753 (1) - Sampleset Auto + Addition Normal + Finish? Well, I don't think I need to say the reason again, but same as the suggestion above.
4. 01:00:263 - 01:14:698 - Sampleset Drum + Addition Normal every second and fourth white tick?
5. 01:25:368 - Sampleset/Addition Auto and then whistle? Considering how quiet this spot is, there's definitely no need for the hitsound there to be THAT loud. A soft whistle should do.
6. 01:25:368 - 01:42:941 - Same as 01:00:263 - 01:14:698 (instead of whistle & clap).
7. 01:30:389 - Sampleset/Addition Auto + Whistle? The current one just feels too loud...
8. 01:37:606 - Whistle? (If you applied the hitsound suggestions, apply them to the other diffs too.)

1. 00:34:526 (2) - Sampleset Drum + Addition Normal?
2. 00:51:163 (3,4) - Why does this stacking feels so random... Unstack them?
3. 01:22:857 (1) - Sampleset Drum + whistle?

1. 00:36:728 (7) - Sampleset/Addition Auto? There's no reason to make the hitsound louder here, from what I can hear.
2. 00:39:238 - ^
3. 00:41:748 - ^
4. 00:59:322 (5) - NC considering the change of spacing that continues slightly longer than usual (the spacing changes usually happen only between two objects, but we have three here)?
5. 01:26:623 (1) - ...The second repeat is kinda unexpected, IMO. Maybe make it repeat once and add a circle then stack it below the slider's head, 1/2 beats after that slider? (This applies to other sliders like this at 01:26:623 - 01:32:742.)

1. ...Reduce the HP, AR, and OD by 1? HP8, AR9, and OD8 is... still kinda extreme for an Insane, even if it's 95.6 BPM @ 3.4 SV. I'd rather use that kind of setting for an Extra diff. This map plays far better with AR8 anyways.
2. 01:34:468 (4) - NC to denote the sudden spacing change on 01:34:468 (4,5,6) so it will be more readable?
3. 01:44:824 (2) - Add whistle to follow the music?

1. 00:36:728 (7) - Sampleset/Addition Auto? There's no reason to make the hitsound louder here, from what I can hear.
2. 00:39:238 - ^

(This applies to other sliders like this at 01:26:623 - 01:32:742.) I got this idea from Alace's maps orz, circle doesn't really give a correct feeling from the song imo...

2. 01:34:468 (4) - NC to denote the sudden spacing change on 01:34:468 (4,5,6) so it will be more readable? Actually if I added a NC here it should be on (3) not (4), but the new comboing here will be (1-2-3)(1-2)(1-2-3-4) which will make the (1-2) doesn't look good at all imo ._.
3. 01:44:824 (2) - Add whistle to follow the music? Ah, I want to make it same with other diffs (clap)

Uhm, that's it I guess?

Good luck on the way

Hi there both pro mapper
99% of them are suggestion lalalalla =w=

General

1. v.k do this tag really needed? Since it the same as song artist Oh, about this, some sources are saying the artist is V.K while in the Cytus game it's listed as V.K. - I'll leaving it there, just in case (:
2. Add muted slider slide? current one is noisy imo (Specially at Normal and Easy diff) Umm, again, leaving for now personally ._.
3. Normal star rate 3.60, Hard star rate 4.96 while Insane is 4.98? I think the diff spread is broken, prefer to add more easier hard? >w>a

Easy

1. 00:57:753 (1)- : add finish here? higher pitch I suppose
2. 01:27:878 (1)- : same suggestion as above
   
   Done both

Hard

1. AR-1 ? AR8 is better when I played it imo (especially with the jumps and DT :3)
2. 00:16:332 (5)- : add whistle on slider tail? Done
3. 00:24:648 (3)- : make this slider place to x176 y38 to make symmetry with slider 1 =w=a Oh, it's intentional >_<
4. 00:37:669 (1)- : add finish on slider head? Yep
5. To see rhythm pattern at 00:49:751 (3,1) err how about add clap at 00:52:575 (3)- here? Oh, no clap from the song here ._.
6. 00:59:479 (6)- : add whistle at slider head? if you do so then add clap at 00:59:949 (7)- here? owo Umm, again I'm following the song here, clap should be on 00:59:635 actually~
7. 01:45:451 (1)- : remove nc here? since you didn't use new combo at easy diff? Oh, I'll NC that one on Easy instead

Insane

1. 00:31:221 (3,4,5)- : why circle 4 at there.... (:3)rz fix 4 the distance into 1.40 is very recommended (:3)rz Fixed this one, should be good now xD

perfect as always lalala (:'''3)rzrzrzrzrzrzrz

good luck bn___n)b

Hi Niva~ Mod

Hard diff
00:22:451 (3) - Ini naikin ke atas dikit? =) Done
00:28:570 (4) - Ini naikin juga ke atas, lebih bagus imo, spt ini: Oh, itu endpoint slider jump, memang sengaja dibuatnya begitu supaya nggak overlap~

SPOILER

00:31:066 (2) - Clap?
00:32:303 (1) - Clap lagi? xD Umm, ini sengaja kok (di Insane nggak ada clap soalnya :3)

That's all Hope this map ranked as soon as possible

00:16:645 (3,4,5) - Inconsistent spacing, fix it manually. <--- Fixed
00:51:163 (3,4) - I'd prefer if you try to avoid such stacks, they might confuse players.
01:30:075 (6,1) - ^ Same goes with this one.
<--- I think map without stack notes boooring~ And for normal doff it's ok~

Andrea wrote:

~General~

I don't think the Audio Lead-In you're using is necessary, remove it. Umm, I give that slight lead-in because I don't want sudden violin sound on 00:00:000... Set all diffs' lead in to 250 though~

~Easy~

00:19:784 (4,1) - I'd try to avoid such overlaps on the easiest difficulty, they might confuse beginners imo. Ah, I liked the flow though >_<
00:24:491 (2) - This circle is almost off-screen, what do you think about moving it up a bit? It would be better, I think. Yep, better now (:
00:29:825 (3,1) - Like I said before, try to not overlap them in this way. Same as above
00:56:497 (2,1) - Again, these circles are almost off-screen, move them up a bit, please.
01:23:485 (2) - ^ Same goes for this circle.
01:27:251 (2) - ^ And this, as well.
01:32:899 (1) - ^ This is a slider, though. Done all, should be better xD
01:41:686 (3) - I'd prefer if you place this slider above the previous one, to avoid confusion. Tested this in play mode, it shouldn't cause confusion I think (by the time this slider appears, (1) should disappear already)
01:45:451 (1) - I don't think this new combo here is necessary, just remove it. It's to beautify the end xD

~Hard~

00:37:355 (9,1) - I can see what's your intention here, but I don't like how does it sound. Umm, I don't change this personally because I've used the same rhythm in 00:40:179 (1) and 00:42:690 (1) o.o
00:55:870 (3) - This slider is almost off-screen, move it up a bit.
00:57:125 (5) - ^ Since it's a copy of the previous one. Done both
01:03:872 (2) - Again, this slider is almost off-screen. Done, also improved the wave's look (:
01:22:857 (1,2) - This pattern might be confusing since you made the same with the other sliders that ended on blue tick instead. Umm, the slow spacing should help already imo :3
01:25:995 (5) - New combo due to the spacing change.
01:26:623 (1) - Then I'd remove this one.
01:28:506 (5) - Same as 01:25:995.
01:29:133 (1) - Same as 01:28:506.
01:31:016 (5) - Same as 01:25:995.
01:31:644 (1) - Same as 01:28:506. Umm, not really sure but I changed this for now, I might revert it later though (personally the previous combo'ing is also beautiful I think ._.)
01:45:451 (1) - Remove this new combo, you don't need it. Umm, I added it just to beautify this part~

~Insane~

00:11:311 (9) - New combo due to the new stanza. Done
00:13:821 (5) - This slider is almost off-screen, try to move it up a bit. Moved the slider's waypoint (not the slider's position) instead xD
00:16:332 (9) - New combo due to the new stanza, again.
00:21:353 (9) - ^ Same here.
00:46:456 (9) - ^ And here.
00:48:966 (9) - ^ And here, again.
00:51:476 (9) - ^ I'm sure if you follow this, new combos would be much better and less longer. All fixed :3
01:34:154 (3) - New combo due to the spacing change. Ah, not changing this (same reason as Hinsvar's mod post previously)

I hope this can help you. Awesome map like always, Niva! :3

Why didn’t use slider slience ? I think it’s better .
( yes I can here it clearly in easy diff 00:30:139 (1) - )

Combo color is too blend together
If you can chage the purple one to another which make it better for player
I suggest red one. ( 255,0,0)
It help player can see note more clearly example the stack one in hard diff like 01:41:372 (4,1) –
And in insane diff here 01:33:841 (1,2,3,4) – the sudden slowdown here is impact for me .
3 to 4

Made the purple a bit darker, red doesn't really fit the bg imo >_< (172,155,255 -> 158,138,255)

Easy
00:31:685 add note + whistle Umm, do you mean 1/2 after 00:31:994 (3)? Added anyway (:
00:39:238 add note Nice one, added
00:56:811 add note + whistle
01:13:757 add note + whistle Hmm, I want to keep my current pattern on these two personally + I don't think the instrument are that significant there o.o

Hard
00:32:303 (1) – whistle
00:56:811 (4) – whistle I didn't add on these two to emphasize the whistle 1/2 after~
01:02:146 (1) – forgot sample set normal ? Umm nope? N sampleset should be on 01:02:774 not here actually o.o
01:17:209 (3) – whistle
01:17:209 (3,4) – use same hit sound ? 01:21:759 (3,4) - ? Around this I added whistle on 01:20:033 (4) instead, if you listen to the piano sound I choose not to include whistle on (3) to emphasize the piano on (4)~

Insane
00:16:959 (3,4,5,6,1,2,3,4) – well this is good case that the NC make me play this better
But the blend of combo color is problem (for me )
There are some partern 00:20:097 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) – like this
it’s better if you can NC at 5 also it make it more easier to read note
( but with out it I can still play but it miss a lot at first and second time playing.
00:45:200 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) – yes I suggest same as above. I don't think the NC is necessary orz, it's still in one union imo but on these two I scaled them more :3)
01:34:468 (4,5,6) – NC at 4 ?this is sudden slowdown. Umm, I've explained this in previous (Hinsvar)'s post orz
Nothing in this diff bug me except sudden slowdown and combo color blend.
01:45:451 (3) – why this not NC same as easy? This is an exception here, the folowpoint plays cute here (really xD)

Pie's Moe diff
PERFECTO ♥

Hard~
00:32:303 - jangan di NC NC ini karena ada spacing changenya xD

Hey, your map came up with !request, so have a random mod!

You should use Tick Rate 4, I reckon, since the BPM is pretty low and the song is quite heavy on the drums. Tried this, I don't really like how it sounded on 3/4 slider orz :3

[Easy] Mainly esthaetics here - This is an Easy after all.
First off I'm not a huge fan of these straight-then-curved sliders you used. Not a huge deal but I think regular s-shaped slider would look slightly better.
00:30:139 (1) - How about ctrl-h ctrl-j ctrl-g on this slider (of course leave it at the same spot though) so that the previous circle doesn't overlap it as much? Ah, a flow like this is intentional (:
00:31:994 (3) - Might as well be 2 circles. New players don't really like short sliders, they release too soon and get a 100 or 50. I feel more solid with a slider here actually, I fixed this slider's unsymmetrical issue btw (:
01:24:112 (3) - I know you're following the piano here and it makes sense but I can't help thinking a 1/2 reverse slider would fit better here, especially with the hitsounding, it'd be great. You choose. Oh, while I was mapping this I thought 'I haven't used 3/4 and it shold be fitting here' >_<

[Hard]
Daaamn. What a difficulty gap between this and the Normal. I see this a lot, so I can't blame you for doing it, but hey.
Okay. First off: Great job. This is really fun and flows very well. I could even take two or three mapping tips from this.
00:36:100 (3,4,5,6,7) - I say put at least a slider in there cause this is a tad tricky to hit. Well, in the chorus there's more part like this though, it's intentional :3
00:37:355 (9) - This goes for all of the sliders like these you used here -- don't. I don't think they work with the music and playing them was awkward. Hmm, parts like this occurs every 4/1 though, they're patterned and I think it should be fun (because it's not random xD)
00:44:102 (6) - Add a repeat so it doesn't feel empty and it'll help you leading into the jump at 00:46:299 (4) - which I missed since I thought it was 1/2.Done
01:25:368 (1,2,3,4,1,2) - This works but I feel like could be improved. You're having a lot of speed built up with the 4 notes and then it comes to a brutal stop, which is okay, but I'd say increase the spacing and stack the next notes, probably would feel better.
01:26:623 (3,4) - These tricked me at first because they had 2 repeats. My advice on this (at least for the first one) would be to reduce spacing so it's more obvious that there is more than one repeat here. You can also delete the repeats and go full 1/4 sliders if you don't wanna be bothered.
01:27:878 (1,2,3,4,1,2) - Same as above, but not as much emphasis on it. The player's expecting things like that at this point. About these three... idk, I got an interpretation like that from the song, I also have NC standing by already at that point though... I'm leaving this for now ._.
01:38:548 (3) - Yo this slider end's not snapped to anything dawg ...I don't even realized this orz, fixed~

[Insane]
God this is fun. Really hard though, and I'd say the HP Drain is really tough here. It's really hard to recover and there are drain sections in there. -1 plz Done~
00:10:055 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - This. Is. FUN. Good job coming up with this. xD
01:11:874 (6) - Why is this slider shaped like a nipp-yeah. That kinda looks weird. I have been using this many times on my map, it's inspired from a slider on dksslqj's Albida o.o
01:19:248 (4) - More 1/4 sliders in this part please! They work great here since as a "slower" section of the map you don't want to bother the players too much with circles, but 1/4 sliders would be really fun here rather than gaps that feel kinda empty. Ah, I'll keep your idea for now, I can't get a good shape to place a 1/4 slider...
01:23:328 (2) - Heh :3
01:33:841 (1,2,3) - Ctrl-h on this one for a nice jump! Keep the pattern going in the same direction though. Nice suggestion, done~
01:37:371 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - gaaah the spacing on this please. I'm not a huge fan of spacing increases in streams but I'm usually tolerant with them. The spacing increase in here is really harsh though.
01:37:920 (1,2) - Players just got out of a demanding stream that needed focus, so I think it's better to only use 1/4 here as to not confuse anyone. Your choice.
01:39:881 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1) - ;_;
01:42:392 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - more ;_; Ah, this... It's my favorite part of the map ._. - Leaving as is though, NC should be helpful already~
Excellent work otherwise, really fun mapset. Have a star!

hi~

[General]

1. There a lack of combo color imo, I don't know if you just wanted for just two colors , but if your interested you could also use this darkish blue color in the map , I think it seems to fit the map nicely with the Gothic bg.
   
   

   Hue:120
   Sat:80
   Lum:90

   
   Use it only if you want to. That teal color looks weird for me >_<
   
2. I agree with previous modders about the audio lead-in it seems unnecessary, its purpose is so people have time to play the map, not for music-wise reasons, but if you insist to keep it then I will not stop you. Removed lead-in on every diff
3. You don't seem to have any Kiai's time in your diff, consider adding a "kiai" point in the map even if it really short. and make sure you do it across all diffs too if you apply this I'm quite confused about this one actually, idk where is the strong point from this song o.o

[Easy]

1. 00:48:025 - You seem to be adding extra 1/4th beat notes to place where vocals are spoken , maybe its to emphasize the vocals in a way. Therefore, If you are doing so , adding a note here would be a good idea because it fits your previous rhythm patterns and as said already , it vocals vocals as well. (orz this part is a trap in Cytus) - Done~
2. 01:35:410 (1) - Please add a finish here , You seem to be switching on and off with finish , skipping 1 strong possible finish beat and then adding it to the next one, if you are following such hitsound pattern, then you should add a finish here to keep consistency with the rest of the following finish hitsounds coming after this Done :3
3. 00:30:139 (1) - This is really really close to touching the hp bar, I suggest you move it down and then reposition the two notes following in this pattern to avoid further issues Fixed
4. 01:07:794 (1) - Finish here , just because it sounds good
5. 01:12:815 (1) - If you do the above, please add a finish here as well to keep consistency.
6. 01:15:326 (1) - Finish here, due to ? rhythm change? (not sure) These finishes was there before, I removed it sometime before your mod because I personally felt unhappy with it...
7. 01:27:251 (2) - After seeing so many notes not "technically" in the mapping zone (like this one) , I had to point it out, move this note up more please it is soo offscreen for me (and position notes after) It's not offscreen in play mode, it's not even in ~y:384 xD
8. 01:41:686 (3) - Reduce the slider so it ends on the red tick instead and add a note to the next white tick? Seems to fit better I think and it won't hurt since you've been doing 1/4th rhythms occasionally across the map . Err, not really sure because it basically shares the same progression with 01:36:665 (3,3)

[Hard]

1. 00:24:020 (1,2,3) - Something really seems off about this , I'm not sure if its the hitsound or the plain rhythm itself , LOL it just sounds weird going through it in the editor Perhaps because the song stops suddenly on 00:25:118 (1) xD
2. 00:31:221 - Its recommended to add a note here because, it follows the missing beat (or was it intentional) because this part was suppose to be relaxing and easy n stuff Yep, why not
3. 00:59:479 (2) - Jump-consistency wise this feels great, but it technically isn't the best place to put the jumps and seems to feel just slightly off with the music ( The next clear beat isn't until the following white tick) , well wait it does follow , but you should put some emphasis on the white tick anyway
4. 01:02:617 (2) - Same as above, there should definitely by some emphasis on the white tick and if you do add something there , it should be a finish hitsound that goes with it. Following the guitar on these two (:
5. 00:37:669 (1) - Maybe add a whistle to the start , you added it to other parts like this. Ah, no whistles around actually
6. 00:57:596 (6) - Cymbal sound in background , finish should truly go here to blend in with it
7. 00:57:753 (1) - If you don't do above, at least add a whistle here. Added whistle (umm, did you got the numbers mixed up? o.o)
8. 01:10:619 (2) - Ahh lacks of jumps , here maybe do something like this http://puu.sh/2yoeq to fill in for a lack of jumps , its just this pattern inconsistent {jump wise) to other parts I want to keep the flow personally here~
9. 01:33:213 (1,2,3,1,2,3,4) - Should just make this whole pattern symmetrical , it is already really close to being so , just its being curved a bit up to the left. Done
10. 01:38:861 (4) - The jump to the next note might be a bit too crazy of a jump , maybe reduce spacing here (I don't know how to fix this without ruining this pattern ) Moving it upward a bit won't hurt xD

[Insane]

1. 00:10:055 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Don't you think this might be a bit confusing to move your mouse around this? i'd rather this whole thing move in a circular direction to make it easier to follow.
2. 00:20:097 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - ^ , I guess it fine, if your consistent with them. I know, it's consistent anyway :3
3. 00:50:535 (3,4) - These two notes fit fine in general, but it'll be better if note 4 gets blanketed by this note: 00:49:907 (4) - , could you figure out a way , to make them blanket but still keep the pattern the same? Ah, the scheme is like this actually http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/701507
4. 00:56:341 (5) - I find it better if you don't make the previous slider touch this slider current slider path path , rather try to blanket it like this : http://puu.sh/2ypwh? Oh, beautiful~
5. 00:56:811 (7) - Whistle sounds nice here imo~ Done
6. 01:02:617 (2) - Generally , like in the hard the white beat should be emphasized D: I know, but I want to follow vocal + do a (2,3) jump here~
7. 01:29:133 (1) - Whistle here please~
8. 01:26:623 (1) - Only do this if you do the above for consistency. and yada yada , do for similar parts after this if you want Umm, whistle is already there o.o
9. 01:36:665 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Just wanted to make sure this stream shape was intentional , seems to look nice , but just worried about it because some people complain when stream spacing suddenly change without a break into the streams. It's intentional, Frostmourne already playtested it btw (:
10. 01:38:548 (4,5) - This slider pattern jump seems to be overused, at least make the sliders different , you can do so by curving it , and you can still keep the jumps , just so this doesn't look so commonly overused in the map. Another nice one, changed
11. 00:21:980 (3) - It'll be better if you increase spacing on this , current position seems a bit too close , (it felt this way during tes tplaying this part of the map) Done~

Good map , nothing much to say , Just some nit-picky things that could be changed.
